Not a fan, but doff my cap to Level 42, especially with the bilge that flooded the airwaves at the time, they stuck to their principals instead of selling out to Stock, Aitkin & Waterman. RIP Rowland.

Very sad indeed. I was a huge fan of the show, particularly the first 4 years. Cliff Barnes was the epitome of an eternal optimist but always ended up a loser, and Ken played him brilliantly. Despite their on-screen loathing of each other, he and Larry Hagman (JR Ewing) were very good friends. RIP Ken.

The name resonates to a time of proper football. No poncey boots or Instagram accounts, no agents messing with your mind and of a time you played through the pain barrier instead of taking a six week break in Dubai. RIP Billy, and thanks for the memories.

Watched earlier this week, and on the "other forum", I observed something I doubt was scripted, but let Patrick Malahide use some artistic licence Look at the first photo, he is clearly pointing at the word SWEENEY, in the following shot, he has switched fingers and has his middle finger over the word SWEENEY. Anyone else notice it?

No cranberry sauce? No bread sauce? Both foul, I wouldn't have picked them. Mint Sauce.....traditionally made with vinegar, but in Bermuda, it was like green jelly. Looked like nuclear waste! Is that not mint jelly? Because I've come across that over here. I've seen mint jelly here, but over there, it was almost fluorescent in colour, real glow in the dark stuff. God knows what it did to your guts!

Brown Sauce, HP Fruity and Daddies, love it. I also voted for Premier Inn's Purple Sauce..this is legendary and must come back. Our American friends on here might have wanted A1 Steak Sauce, loved in the US, unheard of in the UK.Tesco stock it.

Ok, mustard......several varieties from English (hot) to Dijon, to hot dog mustard in a squeezy bottle to wholegrain mustard. Now I cannot abide French mustard, but will have English on anything Or do I leave my chef hat at work and just pick mustard? If you've got Salsa listed, then where's Tzatziki? Quite a few popular ones missing as well Yoghurt and mint, blue cheese dressing, caeser, vinaigrette and where's black pepper? I wished you'd included Levi Roots Reggae Reggae sauce, hits the spot everytime!

Fabled Liverpool FC hard man. Rock solid defender, never gave less than 100% for the shirt. Famously congratulated an opponent for a crunching tackle on his team mate Emlyn Hughes who he hated! Equally famous for kicking a football during a Liverpool Wembley final pre-match exhibition long after he'd stopped playing, and an Everton fan contacting the DSS as Tommy was declared disabled and claiming benefits. RIP Tommy, You'll Never Walk Alone

Original member of Eastenders, probably wouldn't get a mention here in all honesty, however as she appeared in Minder, Dreamhouse, as a starstruck fan of a popstar, I think it appropriate she gets an obituary RIP Sandy.

He was also Gillan's lead guitarist as well I think... RIP Bernie Yes, 1979-81. Quit mid-tour as nobody had been paid in months. Ian Gillan had a very suspect accountant, but that's another story for another day.

Had a text from my good friend John McCoy today to inform me Bernie Torme had succumbed to double pneumonia after a month on a ventilator. Bernie was a great bloke, no egomaniac considering his standing in the guitar world. A genuinely nice person and always happy to chat to fans about his brief time with Ozzy. I was an administrator/moderator on his website when he formed GMT, and did a decent enough job to warrant a name-check on his Evil Twin cd. I saw GMT play live 18 times and was always on the guestlist, courtesy of McCoy, but Bernie would ALWAYS approach me and thank me for my efforts and pass me a drink. I wish he'd known he was to pass yesterday on St Patrick's Day, he'd have liked that. RIP Bernie, my friend.

Very sad. You've ALL heard the Pulp Fiction intro, that's Dick. He was quite ill these past few years, but continued to tour. Here's a cheesy video of Dick and Stevie Ray Vaughan. For some reason, Dock is wearing a Brian May type wig! RIP Dick.

Watched in bed this morning after Windows episode Didn't recognise Gordon Kaye as Sammy. When Wendy has a go at his son with the accountant smirking is good, but then Wendy has a go at the accountant, the sons face is priceless. One question, in the scene where Arthur is visited by the Hospital financial administrator, why does the patients name on the bed read "J Hills" (I think) I like the scene where Vic walks off into the misty morning after the police arrive and Sammy is feeling his lumps! Oh, on Sammy, at the end by the rugby posts where he lunged at Terry, have his trousers split? You suddenly see a blue patch where his @rse is.

Ex boyfriend was Tony James from Generation X, Sigue Sigue Sputnik and Carbon Silicon. A real to$$er who happily name-checked her with her heroin struggles with his suspect anecdotes. She was more famous than him if you ask me. RIP Magenta.

Very shocked, but he called the shots deciding when it was time to go. Off stage very connected with nature and the total opposite of the mad frontman you see on stage. RIP Keith

Not a fan of The Professionals, but their CVs are impressive for a "bad ass", as well as legalised and legitimate kills on their watch. Giving a few back street villains a slap before making up a statement doesn't make you a "bad ass" I know who I'd want in my corner on the terraces at Millwall v Chelsea.
Regan would win in a drinking contest though.

Iconic fashion guru. I don't like his clothes, especially the emphasis on fur, BUT his cologne was fantastic. When I first went clubbing on my return from Hong Kong, my mates aftershave ranged from Brut 33, Hi Karate, Blue Stratos or Old Spice they'd had from their dad. I had Lagerfeld Homme cologne and it ALWAYS got me under starters orders!

Looking over the last few posts, Sam, Tracey, Debee etc are still with us. Let's get a thread started if you want to, I'm all for it, but let's keep this particular thread on the passing of Belinda Charlton.
